For some reason, I thought that was how the enchanter pet was designed. It would only help you if something attacked you first, and you couldn't call it off, etc, which I guess balanced it from Mages, etc. I'm also pretty sure you couldn't dismiss it either (except maybe with some sort of reclaim spell).
I also remember in the older days of EQ, you could use invis as a way to kill pets, until there was a patch that allowed you invis & still keep your pet, which is awesome for keeping a pet while invising through a KoS zone, since the pet would still zone with you, even if you told it to stay at the zone-in. I think that was done sometime after Luclin, maybe even after PoP.
